Brian McGrattan with another win, dominating Jared Boll

November 20, 2011   HockeyFightVids.com   No comments

Blue Jackets Jared Boll has balls and maybe now a sore head as he dropped the gloves with Predators Brian McGrattan and took a beating. With Steve MacIntyre in the minors, is McGrattan the best enforcer in the league now? I love the way McGrattan fights, just standing there throwing punches until he is tired but he does leave himself open and sooner or later he may take one that knocks him woozy. Here’s the McGrattan-Boll fight, check out the rights that land on Boll’s head.

Talking about a bad team with Columbus they also have bad broadcasters. As you listen to the Columbus broadcast during that fight they have McGrattan’s name wrong. Who is McKracken? They’re also wrong how Nashville got McGrattan. The Predators claimed McGrattan off waivers from the Ducks on October 11th during the season, not in the offseason. Columbus managed to win the game in overtime, maybe that will delay Jeff Carter’s next trade request.

And maybe it’s karma for Jared Boll that he got beat up, as two nights ago he dropped the gloves with Bruins Shawn Thornton and broke the code as he threw two punches with the linesmen between them which really pissed off Thornton. I don’t know, I’m just saying.

Fight of the year candidate: Jay Rosehill vs Brian McGrattan

Jay Rosehill vs Brian McGrattan

Fight fans are so happy that tough guy Brian McGrattan is back in the NHL to provide highlight fights like the one we saw Thursday night against Jay Rosehill. What a slugfest they had as McGrattan kept firing right hands at Rosehill as Rosehill started with lefts and then switched to rights but he couldn’t keep up with McGrattan. After the fight in the penalty box you could see McGrattan’s bloody knuckles. Just an amazing fight. Predators fans have to be happy with the slugfests that McGrattan is providing this season (remember his fight against Cam Janssen).

Clutterbuck punches linesman during fight with Lapierre

November 04, 2011   HockeyFightVids.com   No comments

So yesterday in the Canucks-Wild game, during a wrestling match between Cal Clutterbuck and Maxim Lapierre, two guys that every other team hates, the linesman for some reason gets onto the back of Lapierre and Clutterbuck swings and hits the linesman right in the face. Watch it below.

One linesman should not be trying to break up a fight if the other linesman isn’t there. If you’re going to do that then be prepared that you may get hit. A linesman getting punched in a fight, yea that happened last year too with Sharks Jason Demers. Linesmen should let the players go and finish what they started instead of jumping in.

Daniel Briere stops during shootout and scores goal

November 04, 2011   HockeyFightVids.com   No comments

What the f was that? I don’t know how they called Daniel Briere’s shootout goal legal after he stopped and stepped around Johan Hedberg to score on an empty net. But I guess the puck didn’t stop? That was really close. What do you think? I was hoping a Devils player would do the same but they didn’t. I bet you will see more of this now during shootouts.

Joe Thornton calls Rangers “soft,” Tortorella responds “shut up”

November 02, 2011   HockeyFightVids.com   No comments

After Monday night’s Sharks-Rangers game, Joe Thornton was quoted calling the New York Rangers as “soft.” Thornton finished the game with 1 assist, was -1 and had 0 hits and 0 blocked shots.

“To be honest with you, they were probably the softest team we played against on this road trip,” said Joe Thornton. “We played some good teams, and I think we probably should have beat these guys, to be honest with you.” Source: csnbayarea.com

When told after the game what Joe Thornton said, Rangers coach John Tortorella responded “Joe said that? Wonderful.”

Today Rangers coach John Tortorella had some comments about Thornton’s comments.

“Yeah it caught me off-guard when it was brought up after the game,” Tortorella said at the team’s Greenburgh practice facility Tuesday morning. “It surprised me, and I’ve never heard a player say that. Joe’s a heck of a player, but here’s a player popping off about our team, and Joe hasn’t won a g–damn thing in this league. He could go down as a player, being one of the better players in our league never to win anything. So what he should do is just shut up. It was uncalled for, it was classless, and I’ve never had it happen like that before.” Source: nydailynews.com

Oh it’s too bad these two teams don’t play each other again this season. So big Joe is again opening his mouth, as last season he said that Boston Bruins players don’t get suspensions. What will Joe say next? Who knows. Something he may never say is “I won the Stanley Cup.” Maybe Thornton should take Tortorella’s advice and shut up and play the game.
